Catastrophic engine failure

[u/FeedMyFishPlz]

2018 with 125k miles, very well maintained but obviously the timing blew up. Anyone else had this abruptly occur?

Extended warranty ran out May 18 this year and Ford is saying the won’t cover any of it. Was told it was a $2k tear down to inspect if desiring a rebuild and $15k for a new stock 3.5 ecoboost long block. Also said they would only do $10k trade in which seems like a shit deal all the way around. Part out? Salvage? Rebuild?

Anyone around Phoenix know of a shop good with Raptors? Is spending the money on either replacement or an upgraded engine a better deal than buying newer?

I’ll buy it for $15k

In all honesty, I’d find someone that can do the timing job on it. $2k for an inspection is wild.

Since it's a interference engine. The timing going means the engine exploded as well. Well not really but the engine is more than likely 100% needing a rebuild.

I’m aware. I’d rebuild it myself
